Staggering Numbers of Muslims Coming to Christ — Some Due to Dreams and Visions of Jesus

Michael Ireland/TN : Jan 16, 2007   Assist News

"...many Muslims — including Shiites in Iran and Iraq — are seeing dreams and visions of Jesus, and thus coming into churches explaining that they have already converted, and now need a Bible and guidance on how to follow Jesus."

Inaugurating a day of fasting and prayer for persecuted Christians last week during a conference in Malabar, Pastor Paul Ciniraj Mohamed, Director of the Salem Voice Ministries (SVM), based in Kerala, India, said persecuted Christians soon willingly forget hardships, and forgive torture and beatings they have experienced, when they see the unlimited number of lost souls who are coming to Christ and experiencing Salvation. According to the report in ANS, the huge crowd attending the conference in India included a majority of believers in Jesus Christ from the Muslim community.

Ciniraj said "There are about one billion and six hundred million Muslims all over the world. You may think, is it possible to evangelize them? Yes! It is possible, and within a few years all of the Muslim nations will accept Jesus as Lord. Because our Lord 'is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.'" (2 Peter 3:9).

Detailing their outreach, Pastor Shaji Ipe, the General Secretary of SVM, said: "They approach Muslims with prayer and the divine love of Jesus Christ. Firstly, they find out and visit depressed families which have any of its members held in prison, or have long term sickness. Usually they won't get enough care and love from the neighbors or relatives, but are criticized and abused unnecessarily," Ipe said.

"(Our) missionaries show them real love with counseling, nurturing, clothing, medications and healing. They assist those families by cleaning the house, cooking the food, bathing the sick, etc. They make concrete relationships with each of the families. At the same time they keep good relationships with neighboring families too. And they gather together children and adults to share with them stories and fun. In this way they start Bible classes and worship services."

"Another dramatic development is that many Muslims — including Shiites in Iran and Iraq — are seeing dreams and visions of Jesus, and thus coming into churches explaining that they have already converted, and now need a Bible and guidance on how to follow Jesus. This is the fulfillment of the Biblical prophecy of Joel, 'In the last days, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days...And everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.'" (Joel 2:28-32).

According to the research of Prof. Ilyas Ba Yunus, Al Jazeera.net, a leading Islamic TV channel, reported that six million Muslims are converting to Christianity in Africa every year, Ipe said. "Thousands of Bangladeshi, Pakistani, North African, Kashmiri, Indian, Central and South Asian Muslims turn to Christ. Around 50,000 youngsters have been ex-communicated from Islam in Malaysia, because of their Christian faith. Some 35,000 Turks converted to Christianity last year. A vast number of Mullahs and Imams accepted Christ. Two million ethnic Muslims converted to Christianity in Russia. 200,000 UK Muslims and 10,000 French Muslims also converted to Christianity," he said.

Ipe concluded his report by quoting from Joel C. Rosenberg, the author of the New York Times best selling political thrillers, The Last Jihad (2002), The Last Days (2003), The Ezekiel Option (2005), and The Copper Scroll (2006), who writes that, "More Muslims converted to faith in Jesus Christ over the past decade than at any other time in human history. A spiritual revolution is underway throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. As a result, a record number of ex-Muslims are celebrating Christmas this year, despite intense persecution, assassinations, and widespread church bombings."
